'Game of Thrones,' people say that it's a fantasy series, but it's a hell of a lot more than that.

It's all those wonderful things that a fantastic drama is about.
Liam Cunningham

Albert Camus
-
I write what I like to read, and I enjoy love triangles in YA and adult fiction - not to mention in other media like TV, opera, theatre, and even in video games!
